030521 Make Small Commitments Get Big Changes…

Taking Care of You.

Drink plenty of water.

Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a pauper.

Eat more fruits and vegetables and eat less that is manufactured

in processing plants.

Avoid eating food that is handed to you through a window.

Live the 3 E's -- Energy, Enthusiasm and Empathy.

Play more games.

Read more books than you did last year.

Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day.

Sleep for 7 hours.

Take a 10-30 minute walk daily.

And while you walk, smile.

Your Outlook

Don't compare your life to others.

You have no idea what their journey is all about.

Don't have negative thoughts of things you cannot control.

Instead invest your energy in the positive present moment.

Don't overdo. Keep your limits.

Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.

Don't waste your precious energy on gossip.

Dream more while you are awake.

Envy is a waste of time.

You already have all you need.

Forget issues of the past.

Don't remind others of their past mistakes.

Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.

Make peace with your past so it won't spoil the present.

No one is in charge of your happiness except you.

Realize that life is a school and you are here to learn.

Problems are simply part of the curriculum that appear

And fade away but the lessons you learn will last a lifetime.

Learn a new word every day.

Smile and laugh more.

You don't have to win every argument.

Your Relationships

Call your family often.

Each day give something good to others.

Forgive everyone for everything.

Spend time with people over the age of 70 and under the age of 6.

Try to make at least three people smile each day.

What other people think of you is none of your business.

Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. 

Your friends and family will. Stay in touch.

Your Life

The worst promise you can break is one made to yourself.

Do the right thing!

Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful.

You don't have a soul. You are a soul. You have a body.

However good or bad a situation is it will change.

The best is yet to come.

When you awake alive in the morning, thank God for it.

Your Innermost Self is always happy.Follow it.

No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.

Keep these rules handy and review them from time to time.

Follow them and small, almost imperceptible, changes will

Accumulate into something big.

Your life will change.

Excerpted from Rules of the Hunt.

For your loved ones is to get

Life insurance to protect them

Financially.

022621 FYI... Is a life insurance benefit taxable to a beneficiary?

As a general rule, death proceeds are excluded

from the beneficiary’s gross income. 

The proceeds are received income tax free by the

beneficiary regardless of whether the beneficiary

is an individual, a corporation, a trustee, 

or the insured’s estate. 

In order for the death proceeds to be fully excluded

from the beneficiary’s gross income, the life insurance

contract must meet the provisions of applicable state

law and the definition of life insurance found in the

Internal Revenue Code.

A part of what we’re doing.

021721 Got Insurance?

“Would my loved ones struggle financially

If I weren’t here?” If the answer is yes,

Then you likely need life insurance.

021721 "At Day's End"

“At Day’s End”

Is anybody happier because
you passed his way?
Does anybody remember
that you spoke to him today?
The day is almost over,
and its toiling time is through;
Is there anyone to utter
now a kindly word of you?
Can you say tonight, in parting
with the day that’s slipping fast,
That you helped a single brother
of the many that you passed?
Is a single heart rejoicing
over what you did or said?
Does the man whose hopes were fading,
now with courage look
Did you waste the day, or lose it?
Was it well or sorely spent?
Did you leave a trail of kindness,
or a scar of discontent?
As you close your eyes in slumber,
do you think God will say,
“You have earned one more tomorrow
by the work you did today”?

- John Hall

021621 Don't Rely on "Go-Fund-Me" to take care of YOUR Final Expenses...

In November 2019, a  woman set up

a Go-Fund-Me campaign after her 

father's death, posting...

"Although my father wanted to make

sure we were taken care of, he was 

never able to nail down a life 

insurance policy. 

Funeral costs are expensive and every

little bit helps us to give him the send

off he deserves."

One month later, only $60 had been raised.

 

The truth is, crowd-funding only goes so

Far. With life insurance, you can know with

Certainty that if the unexpected happens,

Your loved ones would be financially

Secure.

 #InsureYourLove

 

I Would Be More Than Happy

To Help YOU "Nail Down" a

Life Insurance Policy!
